The King retains the right to take away anything members of his family - including Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis - are given from the public
Everyone knows that the Royal Family must abide by a series of strict rules and codes of conduct at all times, whether that is adhering to specific protocol, attending events or arriving in a certain order.
As kind as these gestures are, there is a strict rule which means any gift that is handed over to the Royals during a visit does not automatically belong to them and the monarch has the right to decide what to do with it. These rules mean that anything that is handed over automatically belongs to the monarch and will not be owned by that member of the family unless they themselves accede to the throne.
The guidance says: "Official gifts are not the private property of the Member of The Royal Family who receives them but are instead received in an official capacity in the course of official duties in support of, and on behalf of The King."
